Hi Guys

I'm new here and having read a number of posts I gather that problems with Audio are quite common. FYI -I am trying to capture VHS to DVD format.

My issue is that I can capture video & get no audio. I am running XP and whatever I try I cannot get the machine's device manager to show "USB Audio device". I've loaded countless drivers and the only choices I get are

Realtek AC97 Audio (my sound card) and for some reason "Bluetooth Audio".

Any suggestions gratefully received.

The quick fix is to bypass the usb audio altogether and purchase a "3.5mm Stereo Jack to 2 x RCA" adaptor. You can get them for 61p inc delivery on Amazon



http://www.amazon.co.uk/WE11130-Adaptor-3-5mm-stereo-sockets/dp/B000L9C3GY/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1271193386&sr=8-5


Take the 2 audio outs from your games console/vhs player and insert into the adaptor. Insert the adaptor into the "line In" input at the back of your pc on the sound card. This leaves just the yellow video lead going from the games console/vhs player into the ezcap.


Change the audio settings in your capture software from "usb audio device" to "line in"

Hi

That is an excellent suggestion especially as I already have the plug!!

I'll give it a go and let you know.

Many thanks
